I just found out how to remove the VU bar: lift the acrylic plate upwards until the bottom clears the lower metal lid. Then you can pull out first the acrylic and then the metal plate with all its circuitry.

Hi Folks!One of the stereo bus bar graphs of my Scorpion (1) is now stuck on. I want to swap it with one of the working bus meters. My tech expertise ends at soldering cables, but I have a capable friend who can help here. I want to figure something out before I have him come over, so I have a question.

I have attached a picture showing the face of the meter bridge held in place with some kind of yellow glue, putty, or old foam that has hardened (both ends have it). Does this seem like just a little squirt of something to dig out at each end, or was this applied across the entire bridge when it was assembled?
